Abstract
The present invention concerns synthetic mica powder containing from 75 to 99% of the stoichiometrical composition of fluorine and/or having a shape in which the end face of a particle is laminated, a process for producing such synthetic mica powder, as well as cosmetics having synthetic mica powder blended therewith, in which the synthetic mica powder shows no leaching of fluorine ions and/or improved hold of oils due to lamination at the surface of the powder. Accordingly, in this invention, cosmetics excellent in extensibility, gloss, adherence and moldability, having an appearance of high chroma and of high stability and safety can be obtained.
Description
This is a divisional of application No. 07/265,862 filed Sept. 28, 1988, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,023,065.
The present invention concerns synthetic mica powder, production process therefor and cosmetics having the synthetic mica powder blended therewith. The cosmetics having the synthetic mica powder blended therewith according to the present invention have a flowery outer-looking color, show excellent properties upon use, feeling of finish are and highly stable and safe.
Various body pigments are blended with cosmetics with the aim of improving the extensibility, adherence, hiding power, moldability, etc., of products. As the body pigment, there can be mentioned inorganic powder such as talc, kaolin, and mica and organic powder such as nylon powder, polyethylene powder, polystyrene powder, acrylic resin powder and epoxy resin powder. Among them, mica has been used frequently since it has an excellent transparent feeling, gloss and extensible feeling upon use. Recently, synthetic mica has been developed in addition to natural mica.
Synthetic mica is a phyllosilicate mineral obtained by a melting method, hydrothermal method or intersolid reaction method. Synthetic mica powder composed of good crystals has been prepared by mixing compounds each containing potassium, sodium, magnesium, aluminum, silicon and fluorine at a predetermined ratio, melting, crystallizing, cooling, and then mechanically pulverizing them. Such synthetic mica can include, for example, as below:
KMg3 (AlSi3 O10)F2 potassium phlogopite
KMg2 1/2(Si4 O10)F2 potassium tetrasilicon mica
KMg2 Li(Si4 O10)F2 potassium taeniolite
K2/3Mg2 1/3Li2/3(Si4 O10)F2
NaMg3 (AlSi3 O10)F2 sodium phlogopite
NaMg2 Li(Si4 O10)F2 sodium taeniolite
NaMg2 1/2(Si4 O10)F2 sodium tetrasilicon mica
Na1/3Mg2 2/3Li1/3(Si4 O10)F2 sodium hectorite
As has been described above, although the mica has excellent properties, natural mica shows a slight coloration since it contains a slight amount of metallic impurities. Accordingly, when the natural mica is blended with cosmetics, it tends to reduce the chroma of the outer looking color of the cosmetics. While organic pigments are used as an example of general means for improving the chroma of the outer looking color of the cosmetics, the organic pigment is poor in light stability, and degraded by the light thereby causing undesirable phenomenon as cosmetics such as discoloration or a bad odor.
Further, the mica has strong activity at the surface of powder, which tends to cause degradation in oils and perfumes.
In view of the extensible feeling upon use, spherical resin powder may be used as a substitute to some extent but, if the spherical resin powder is blended in a great amount, it reduces the adherence of cosmetics to skin and, further, worsens the moldability of cosmetics.
Referring to the gloss, while may one consider blending titanium-mica type pearl pigment instead of mica, it also worsens the moldability of cosmetics.
In short, while mica has excellent properties that can not be substituted with other powders, optional blending thereof is inhibited at present in view of the coloration due to a slight amount of metals and surface activity.
Furthermore, mica has a drawback when blended with cosmetics that it is poor in oleophilicity, poor in dispersion stability and incapability of satisfying smooth feeling upon use.
That is, although the natural mica has excellent properties that can not be substituted with other powders, it involves a problem of coloration due to the slight amount of metallic impurities, the problem of surface activity and the problem of diffusion into the substrate, which inhibits the optional blending.
With an aim of overcoming such problems, the synthetic mica has been produced as described above. Since there is no incorporation of a slight amount of metallic impurities in the synthetic mica, the problem of reducing the chroma of the outer-looking color of the cosmetics can be overcome. However, the activity at the surface of the powder is high as in the case of the natural mica. In addition, since fluorine ions (F-) are leached out when blended in the cosmetic preparations, there is a safety problem. Furthermore, the oleophilicity is at the same level as the natural mica and the dispersion property or feeling upon use can not be improved.
In view of the above, it has keenly been demanded for the development of synthetic mica capable of suppressing the surface activity, with no leaching of fluorine ions and excellent in the dispersion property and feeling upon use, for the aim of producing cosmetics, particularly, make-up cosmetics excellent in extensibility, gloss, adherence and moldability, providing an outer looking color at high chroma, and high stability and safety.
For overcoming these problems, the present inventors have tried regarding the mol number of F as follows:
(1) A method of dissolving F with strong acid.
(2) A method of synthesizing while decreasing the blending amount of F upon melting.
(3) A method of repeating washing with purified water, boiled water, etc.
However, not only F but also Mg, K, etc., are leached out in the same way to possibly destroy the structure in the method (1). Only the deposition amount of mica crystals is decreased and the mol number of F in the synthetic mica does not change in the method (2). No substantial effect can be obtained for the decrease of the mol number of F by the method (3).
For improving the oleophilicity, it has been considered to improve the hold of oils by making the surface shape of the synthetic mica particles more irregular and there have been tried those methods of vibration treatment using supersonic waves, chemical treatment using an oxidizing or reducing agent and treating with strong alkali. However, none of the methods has been effective and, rather, undesirably resulted in coarse powder due to secondary coagulation, etc.
In view of the above, the present inventors have made further research and as a result of earnest study have succeeded in the development of novel synthetic mica showing extremely useful and interesting natures and the production process therefor, and have attained the present invention.
That is, the first invention concerns synthetic mica powder in which the mol number of fluorine in the synthetic mica composition is from 75 to 99% of the stoichiometrical composition of synthetic mica, the second invention concerns synthetic mica powder in which the end face of the particle of synthetic mica powder has a laminated shape, the third invention concerns synthetic mica powder in which the mol number of fluorine in the synthetic mica composition is from 75 to 99% of the theoretical composition of the synthetic mica and the end face of the particle of the synthetic mica powder has a laminated shape, the fourth invention concerns a production process for the synthetic mica powder of the first invention, in which synthetic mica is heat-treated at 600°-1350° C., the fifth invention concerns a production process for the synthetic mica powder of the second invention, in which the synthetic mica powder is brought into contact with an aqueous solution comprising one or more of an acid or chelating agent, the sixth invention concerns a production process for the synthetic mica of the third invention, which comprises in combination a step of bringing synthetic mica powder into contact with an aqueous solution composed of one or more of an acid or chelating agent and a step of applying heat treatment to the synthetic mica at 600°-1350° C., the seventh invention concerns cosmetics, in which the synthetic mica of the first invention as described above is blended, the eighth invention concerns cosmetics, in which the synthetic mica of the second invention is blended and the ninth invention concerns cosmetics, in which the synthetic mica of the third invention is blended.
In the following, the present invention will be described more specifically.
The feature of the synthetic mica powder according to the first invention resides in that the mol number of fluorine in the synthetic mica is from 75 to 99% based on 2 mol of the synthetic mica as the stoichiometrical composition. If the mol number of fluorine (F) is less than 75% of the stoichiometrical composition, it is not desirable since the synthetic mica is decomposed and converted into forsterite (MgSiO4), leucite (KAlSi2 O6), etc. On the other hand, if the mol number of F exceeds 99%, it is not desirable as well since there is no recognizable difference with respect to the properties from those of the case of 2 mol composition. The mol number of F is from 75 to 99%, preferably, from 80 to 97.5% and, more preferably, from 90 to 95% of the stoichiometrical composition.
The general formula of the synthetic mica powder of the first invention is shown below:
X.sub.1/3˜1 Y.sub.2˜3 (Z.sub.4 O.sub.10)F.sub.1.5˜1.99
wherein X represents one or more of ions selected from the group consisting of Na+, K+, Li+, Ca2+, Rb2+, Sr2+, Y represents one or more of ions selected from the group consisting of Mg2+, Fe2+, Ni2+, Mn2+, Al3+, Fe3+ and Li+, and Z represents one or more of ions selected from the group consisting of Al3+, Si4+, Ge4+, Fe3+ and B3+.
The production process for the synthetic mica powder according to the first invention resides in applying heat treatment at 600° to 1350° C. to the synthetic mica. If the temperature is lower than 600° C., it is not preferred since the mol number of fluorine can not be decreased. While on the other hand, if the temperature exceeds 1350° C., it is not preferred since the synthetic mica is melted. The temperature for the heat treatment ranges from 600° to 1350° C., preferably 700° to 1200° C., and more preferably 900° to 1100° C.
The time for the heat treatment can optionally be selected depending on the processing temperature from several seconds to several days and a processing time of about from 0.5 to 10 hours is preferred in the case of treating the synthetic fluoro-phlogopite, for example, at a temperature of 1000° C.
As the general process for producing synthetic mica, for example, in the case of synthetic fluoro-phlogopite, about 40 parts of anhydrous silicic acid, about 30 parts of magnesium oxide, about 13 parts of aluminum oxide and about 17 parts of potassium silicofluoride are mixed and then melted at 1400°-1500° C., and then crystallized at 1300°-1400° C. to obtain synthetic fluoro-phlogopite (KMg3 (AlSi3 O10)F2). After preparing the synthetic mica in this way, the obtained ingots are pulverized and classified, if required, to obtain synthetic mica powder.
In the case of pulverizing ingots, generally, the coarse pulverization is at first conducted and then fine pulverization is applied. The heat treatment may be applied either after the coarse pulverization of ingots or after fine pulverization. In the present invention, heat treatment is preferably applied after the pulverization and classification since it is excellent in view of shortening the processing time and increasing the processing effect.
For the facility and the system of applying heat treatment to the synthetic mica, all of known means can be used, for example, an external heating type heating furnace, an internal heating type heating furnace, a rotary kiln, etc.
The atmosphere for the heat treatment may be an oxidizing atmosphere, reducing atmosphere, argon gas atmosphere, N2 atmosphere, ammonia atmosphere, vacuum, etc. or the combination of them, which may be appropriately selected depending on the application use and the function. The particle size of the synthetic mica powder with less mol number of F according to the present invention, while varying depending on the application use, is generally from 0.05 to 2 μm along the thickness and from 2 to 60 μm along the plane.
The amount of the synthetic mica powder blended with the cosmetics is from 1 to 100% by weight based on the total amount of the cosmetics.
The end face of the particle of the synthetic mica powder according to the second invention has to be laminar. If it is not laminar, synthetic mica powder capable of attaining the purpose according to the present invention can not be obtained. Conventional synthetic mica powder has been prepared generally from laminar crystallized product of from several millimeters to several centimeters obtained by the melt-synthesis process by coarsely pulverizing in a dry pulverizer, for example, a jaw crusher or a hammer crusher and, thereafter, further pulverizing in a fine pulverizer. The shape of the thus obtained synthetic mica powder is an indefinable plate-like shape and the shape at the end face of the particle is planar and no lamination at the end face can be recognized. Lamination at the end face of the particle means such a state in which the shape at the end face the particle is cleaved into at least two leaves. It is sufficient that the number of cleavage at the end face is two or more and it is more preferred as the number of cleavages is increased. Accordingly, the conventional synthetic mica powder in which the end face of the particle does not cleave into two or more leaves but is in a plane shape does not belong to the powder of synthetic mica according to the present invention. The end face of the particle means the face along the thickness (not along the plane) of the respective synthetic mica powder after powderization.
The particle size of the synthetic mica powder in which the end face is laminated according to the second invention, while varying depending on the application use, generally ranges from 0.05 to 2 μm along the thickness and from 2 to 60 μm along the plane.
The apparent thickness of the synthetic mica according to the present invention appears to be increased in view of the voids as compared with the conventional synthetic mica powder. However, since the end face of the particle is laminated and cleaved, the specific surface area of the particle is increased.
The synthetic mica according to the second invention is represented by the following general formula: X1/3˜1 Y2˜3 (Z4 O10)F2, in which X represents one or more of ions selected from the group consisting of Na+, K+, Li+, Ca2+, Rb2+ and Sr2+, Y represents one or more of ions selected from the group consisting of Mg2+, Fe2+, Ni2+, Mn2+, Al3+, Fe3+ and Li+ and Z represents one or more of ions selected from the group consisting of Al3+, Si4+, Ge4+, Fe3+ and B3+.
The feature of the production process for the synthetic mica powder according to the second invention resides in bringing the synthetic mica powder into contact with an aqueous solution comprising one or more of an acid or chelating agent.
As the general production process for the synthetic mica powder, synthetic fluoro-phlogopite (KMg3 (AlSi3 O10)F2), for instance, is obtained in the same manner as the first invention. The synthetic fluoro-phlogopite ingots thus obtained are pulverized and, if required, classified to obtain synthetic fluoro-phlogopite powder.
The synthetic fluoro-phlogopite powder obtained in the above-mentioned example is in the indefinable plate-like shape and the shape at the end face of the particle is flat.
The synthetic mica powder having the shape in which the end face of the particle is laminated according to the second invention is obtained by bringing the synthetic mica powder obtained in the general production process as described above into contact with an aqueous solution comprising one or more of an acid or chelating agent. For instance, there can be mentioned a production process of bringing the synthetic fluoro-phlogopite powder into contact with an aqueous solution of citric acid.
The time of contact with the aqueous solution is from several minutes to several days, which can be properly selected depending on the processing temperature and the processing concentration. In the case of bringing the fluoro-phlogopite into contact with 11 M/l citric acid solution at 20° C., for example, from 30 minutes to 5 hours of time is preferred.
In the case of pulverizing ingots, coarse pulverization and fine pulverization are generally applied in this order, but contact with the aqueous solution may be conducted either after the coarse pulverization or after the fine pulverization. Contact after the fine pulverization and classification is excellent in view of the effect.
The contact temperature can be selected properly from 0° to 100° C., and higher temperature is preferred since the lamination can be promoted.
The concentration of the aqueous solution for the contact can properly be selected depending on the amount of the synthetic mica powder and it is generally from 0.05 to 10 M/l.
As the method of bringing the synthetic mica powder into contact with the aqueous solution, any of known methods may be applied, for example, stirring by an agitator, aeration dipping, etc.
As the acid, either of an inorganic or organic acid may be used and weak acid is preferably used since the structure may possibly be destroyed in the case of using a strong acid. The organic acid can include, for example, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, chloric acid, perchloric acid, periodic acid, bromic acid, phosphoric acid, boric acid and carbonic acid. The organic acid can include, for example, carboxylic acid such as, formic acid, acetic acid, acrylic acid, benzoic acid, oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, pimelic acid and phthalic acid, oxycarboxylic acids such as, lactic acid, maleic acid, tartaric acids and citric acid, amino acid such as glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, tyrosine, thoreonine, serine, proline, triptophane, methionine, cystine, thyroxine, asparagine, glutamic acid, lysine and alginine. The chelating agent can include, for example, ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, nitrotriacetic acid, 1,2-diaminocyclohexane-tetraacetic acid, N-oxyethylene ethylenediamine-triacetic acid, ethyleneglycolbis-tetraacetic acid, ethylenediamine tetrapropionic acid, etc.
The amount of the synthetic mica powder blended with the cosmetics is from 1 to 100% by weight based on the total amount of the cosmetics.
The feature of the synthetic mica powder according to the third invention is that the mol number of fluorine (F) in the synthetic mica is from 75 to 99% to 2 mol of the synthetic mica as the stoichiometrical composition. If the mol number of F is less than 75% of the stoichiometrical composition, it is not preferred since the synthetic mica is decomposed into forsterite (MgSiO4), leucite (KAlSi2 O6), etc. On the other hand, if the mol number of F exceeds 99%, it is not desirable since there is no particular difference in the properties with respect to those of the 2 mol composition. The mol number of F is from 75 to 99%, preferably, from 80 to 97.5% and, more preferably, from 90 to 95% of the stoichiometrical composition.
The general formula of the synthetic mica powder of the third invention is shown below:
X.sub.1/3˜1 Y.sub.2˜3 (Z.sub.4 O.sub.10)F.sub.1.5˜1.99
wherein X represents one or more of ions selected from the group consisting of Na+, K+, Li+, Ca2+, Rb2+, Sr2+, Y represents one or more of ions selected from the group consisting of Mg2+, Fe2+, Ni2+, Mn2+, Al3+, Fe3+ and Li+, and Z represents one or more of ions selected from the group consisting of Al3+, Si4+, Ge4+, Fe3+ and B3+.
The end face of the particle of the synthetic mica powder according to the third invention has to be laminar. If it is not laminar, the synthetic mica capable of obtaining the purpose of the third invention can not be obtained. Conventional synthetic mica powder is generally obtained from laminar crystal products of several millimeters to several centimeters size formed by the melt-synthesis method by coarsely pulverizing in a dry pulverizer, for example, a jaw crusher or a hammer crusher and then further pulverizing or grinding in a fine pulverizer. The shape of the thus obtained synthetic mica powder is an indefinable plate-like in which no lamination is found at the end face of the particle. Lamination at the end face of the particle means such a state in which the end face of the particle is cleaved into at least two leaves. It is sufficient that the number of cleavages at the end face is at least two or more and it is more desirable that the number of cleavage is increased. Accordingly, the synthetic mica powder in which the end face of the particle is not cleaved into two or more leaves and merely takes a planar shape does not belong to the synthetic mica powder according to the present invention. The end face of the particle means the face along the respective thickness (not along the plane) of the respective synthetic mica powder after powderization.
The particle size of the synthetic mica according to the third invention, while varying depending on the application use, is generally from 0.05 to 2 μm along the thickness and from 2 to 60 μm along the direction of the plane.
The apparent thickness of the synthetic mica powder according to the third invention appears to be greater due to voids as compared with the conventional synthetic mica powder. However, since the end face of the particle is laminated and cleaved, the specific surface area of the particle is increased.
Explanation will then be made to the process for producing synthetic mica according to the third invention. At first, explanation will be made to the step of reducing the mol number of fluorine in the synthetic mica to 75-99% for 2 mols of the conventional stoichiometrical composition.
As the general production process for the synthetic mica, synthetic fluoro-phlogopite (KMg3 (AlSi3 O10)F2) is obtained by mixing about 40 parts of anhydrous silicic acid, about 30 parts of magnesium oxide, about 13 parts of aluminum oxide and about 17 parts of potassium silicofluoride, which are then melted at 1400°-1500° C. and crystallized at 1300°-1400° C. After obtaining the synthetic mica in this way, the thus obtained ignots are pulverized and, if required, classified to obtain synthetic mica powder.
Synthetic mica with a reduced mol number according to the present invention can be obtained by subjecting the conventional synthetic powder to heat treatment at 600°-1350° C. If the temperature is less than 600° C., it is not preferable since the mol number of fluorine can not be reduced. While on the other hand, if the temperature exceeds 1350° C., it is not preferable since the synthetic mica is melted. The heat treating temperature is within a range from 600° to 1350° C., preferably from 700° to 1200° C. and, more preferably 900° to 1100° C.
The time for heat treatment can properly be selected from several seconds to several days depending on the processing temperature and a processing time from about 0.5 to 10 hours is preferred in the case of processing the synthetic fluoro-phlogopite at 1000° C., for instance.
The heat treatment may be applied either after the coarse pulverization or after the fine pulverization of the ingots of synthetic mica. Heat treatment is preferably applied after the fine pulverization and classification, since it is excellent in view of shortening the processing time and improving the effect. For the system and facility of applying heat treatment to the synthetic mica, all of known methods can be applied such as an external heating type heating furnace, an internal heating type heating furnace, a rotary kiln, etc. The atmosphere for the heat treatment may be an oxidizing atmosphere, reducing atmosphere, argon gas atmosphere, N2 gas atmosphere, ammonia gas atmosphere, vacuum and combinations thereof, which can selected properly depending on the application use and function.
Explanation will be made to the lamination at the end face of the particle in the synthetic mica powder.
For example, the shape of the synthetic fluoro-phlogopite powder is indefinable plate-like and the shape of the end face of the particle is flat. For making the end face of the particles laminar, the synthetic mica powder is brought into contact with an aqueous solution comprising one or more of an acid or chelating agent. For instance, there can be mentioned a method of bringing the synthetic fluoro-phlogopite powder in contact with an aqueous solution of citric acid.
The time of contact with the aqueous solution is from several minutes to several days, which can be properly selected depending on the processing temperature and the processing concentration and it is, preferably, about from 30 min to 5 hours in the case, for example, of bringing the synthetic fluoro-phlogopite into contact with a solution of 1 M/l citric acid at 20° C.
The pulverization for the ingots is generally carried out by the coarse pulverization and then fine pulverization in this order. Contact with the aqueous solution may be conducted either after the coarse pulverization or after the fine pulverization of the synthetic mica ingots. Contact after the pulverization and classification is excellent in view of the effect.
The temperature for contact can be selected properly from 0° to 100° C. and higher temperature is more preferred since it can promote the lamination.
The concentration of the aqueous solution for contact can properly be selected depending on the amount of the synthetic mica and it is generally from 0.05 to 10 M/l.
As the method of bringing the synthetic mica powder into contact with the aqueous solution, any of known methods can be applied, for example, agitation by a stirrer and aeration dipping, etc.
As the acid and the chelating agent, those inorganic and organic acids, as well as chelating agents exemplified for the second invention can be used.
The synthetic mica in which the mol number of F is reduced and the end face of the particle is laminated according to the third invention can be obtained by applying the two steps described above successively. That is, the method comprises a step of bringing the synthetic mica powder into contact with an aqueous solution comprising one or more of an acid or chelating agent and a step of applying heat treatment at 600°-1350° C. to the synthetic mica powder. The order for conducting the steps is optional and can properly be selected.
The amount of the synthetic mica powder blended to the cosmetics is from 1 to 100% by weight based on the total amount of the cosmetics.
The cosmetics concerning the present invention include those versatile cosmetics, such as facial cosmetics, make-up cosmetics and hair cosmetics. The present invention is particularly suitable to make-up cosmetics, for example, foundation, face powder, eye shadow, brusher, cosmetic bases, nail enamel, eye liner, mass color, lip sticks and fancy powder.

As is apparent from the table, the emulsified foundation X according to the present invention is excellent over the foundation Y for comparison. Further, foundation X according to the present invention was also excellent in the aging stability (with no decomposition). Samples prepared from each of emulsion foundations X and Y after preserving for one month in a thermostat at 37° C. and respective controls (emulsion foundations X and Y prepared by the same formulations and just after the preparation) were compared with respect to the perfume stability by the functional estimation. In the case of the emulsion foundation X according to the present invention, there was no substantial difference between the sample and the control after preservation for one month. While on the other hand, in the case of emulsion foundation Y for comparison, the odor of the sample preserved after one month was rather changed as compared with the control.
The synthetic mica powder according to the present invention shows less leaching of fluorine ions and low surface activity. Furthermore, it shows improved hold of oils due to the lamination at the surface of the powder. Accordingly, it is possible to obtain cosmetics excellent in extensibility, gloss, adherence and moldability, having an outer looking color of high chroma and excellent safety and stability by blending such mica powder with cosmetics that could not be obtained with conventional starting powder materials such as talc, mica, kaolin, etc.
That is, in the case of blending the synthetic mica powder according to the present invention with foundation, eye shadow, brusher, etc., cosmetics with excellent extensibility, adherence and gloss, as well having smooth feeling in use can be obtained in the case of blending. The dispersibility is satisfactory. Further, since cosmetics having an outer looking color of high chroma can be obtained by blending the synthetic mica powder according to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the blending amount of organic pigment which is poor in the light stability and tends to cause discoloration and a bad odor. Furthermore, since the catalytic activity of the, synthetic mica powder according to the present invention is low, cosmetics with no degradation in perfume or the like and high stability can be obtained. Furthermore, since the synthetic mica powder for use in the present invention shows the fluorine ion leaching amount as low as about 1/100 for that of the usual synthetic mica powder, it can be said that the cosmetics according to the present invention have high safety. The present cosmetics show excellent close bondability to skin and satisfactory sliding property as compared with conventional synthetic mica powder.
